How can you overcome a toxic relationship? One where you often find yourself afraid, confused and feeling betrayed? One where you are constantly walking on eggshells? Or one where there seems to be no way out? This is a book about relationships, childhood trauma and healing. The people in this book are a real-life demonstration of what happens when we ignore the red flags in our relationships, overlook our childhood traumas and neglect our own healing process. Read about the traits of narcissism with real-life examples drawn from the life of a female Psychologist, as she retells the story of her two narcissistic lovers and the relationships she had with them back to back. Discover the difference between a covert and an overt narcissist. Learn how to identify and then heal your own childhood traumas. Develop a self-care practice with therapy tools such as CBT and Mindfulness. Repair the emotional damage that you may have suffered as a result of living with or loving a narcissist. Finally, be encouraged that you can and will overcome abuse and reclaim your life. In this book, Psychologist Jenny Tamasi shares her journey of overcoming not one but two toxic relationships with narcissistic lovers; one after the other. Jenny takes a long deep look at the common and not so common traits of narcissists and courageously shines a light on her own childhood traumas in an effort to claim her healing. After meeting, falling in love and then leaving these toxic relationships, Jenny is now ready to reveal: The Red Flags that she missed both times, The Love Bombing, that kept her in the cycle of abuse, Gaslighting that caused confusion and doubt. The healing techniques that helped her find her way out. The truth of why it all happened in the first place.

Review

" I have just finished reading this book and it was brilliant! Very well written, by a lady who had first hand experience with narcissistic relationships. I could identify with the second relationship and it helped to realise it wasn't my fault that I made bad choices. I would highly recommend this book. A very good read!"


"This book shows how easy it is for intelligent and well-educated women to fall victim to abusive and toxic relationships."


"The stories are compelling, and the characters well written, this is a must-read for anyone who is unsure about what is happening in their relationship"


"The Red flags make this book stand out from all the other relationship books out there Being able to relate these back to my own life was my saving grace"

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent read on covert and overt narcissistic behaviors
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2021

The author does a fantastic job of exposing how her childhood shaped her communication and problem solving skills with her partners. The reader is taken on a journey of learning about two very different narcissistic men who are abusive in their own controlling ways. Any reader who has been in a similar situation can empathize with the writer. Most useful, are the exercises of how you will change or recognize patterns of narcissistic abuse and grow your own skill set to identify red flags quickly to GET OUT. As a reader I felt the tone was easy to read and that I was sitting across from my best friend struggling through a relationship decision of whether to stay or go; the love bombing is so addicting. I sincerely think Jenny wrote this book as a way to heal. I hope she finds happiness soon and always checks the egg carton for those cracked eggs!!

5.0 out of 5 stars I have read hundreds of Narcissist abuse books, but I love this book!
Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2021

As soon as I opened this book I could relate to Jenny’s journey. The examples of her own experience mixed with her psychologist perspective was extremely helpful. So many victims of narcissistic abuse wonder if they were just not good enough and I highlighted this to help people see it wasn’t them. “If you have ever wondered why, they were with you even though you weren’t ‘good enough’ for them, stop. The problem isn’t you; it is them, and their constant need to feel better about themselves.” It really is them. Jenny details her experience with grace and strength and there are so many parts that reminded me of my story. I highly recommend this book to anyone trying to understand this type of abuse.

5.0 out of 5 stars A psychologist shares her romantic experience with two narcissits and what she learned.
Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2021
Verified Purchase
Written by a professional psychologist who experienced the manipulation and cruelty of two narcissists with whom she was romantically involved, the author provides an honest self analysis explaining why she stayed and tolerated the emotional abuse for as long as she did. She offers guidance and “red flags” for others who may be in a similar relationship. A helpful book not only for those who have a romantic partner who may be a narcissist but it can also can help others who are dealing with someone who is exhibiting this kind of behavior, such as a sibling, a boss, or a colleague. Overall the author provides encouragement and hope throughout the book ending with mental health exercises and tips. Well worth the read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for anyone who has ever had an experience with Narcissists
Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2021

This book grabbed me from the first two sentences of Chapter 1 - "Trauma is a HUMAN condition. Whether we realize it or not, our childhood and our relationships with our primary caregivers have a significant impact on who we are as adults." I've worked through my own childhood trauma, and Jenny Tamasi's book is a wonderful tool to walk with you through your own journey.
At the end of each chapter, Jenny gives the reader reflection points to take action on the lesson she's taught. It is a gentle way of embodying and enacting the transformation while healing from the trauma of a toxic relationship. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has experienced some form of toxic relationship.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy and fun to read with expert information for healing
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2021

This book is different from others that I have read about narcissists. I love her story, the reflection points, and therapeutic exercises. I also like that there is a section for journaling. I love that her two relationship examples showcase both covert and overt abuse. This is a much easier book to read than some other books on this topic, it feels like you are hearing your best friend’s story but with expert insight. The author also adds some humor into her difficult experiences which I appreciate! It’s easy to see myself in some of her examples and I’m excited to implement her suggestions into my own healing!!! Must read for any survivor of narcissistic abuse!

5.0 out of 5 stars Informative

This is an easy read and very informative of the red flags of narcissism. I liked the red flag sections and also the journaling areas in the back where I took notes. The healing suggestions were great and useful. The book compares overt and covert nicely and shows how narcissism has a range of characteristics and not all narcissists act the same, but the end result is the same for the victim. Great information was given through a victim's eyes who fell for two different narcissists showing how easy it is to get entangled with these dysfunctional people.

Reading Jenny’s experiences with her ex narcissists was like reliving my own hell . But it’s refreshing to know that someone has worked on my shoes. As narcissistic abuse survivors all know it , it’s very hard to explain our abuse to others
Well done Jenny. Every word and experience resonate with me.
You spoke to my soul. Keep up the good work

Whether you have been in a toxic relationship or not, this book has something for everyone. You will find little nuggets of wisdom throughout your read. It is written honestly and in everyday terms most people can relate to. The author takes you on a journey of self discovery that is full of life learning lessons. This is the first self help book I have ever read that did not seem like a chore. Every mom should share this book with her daughter. Jenny I wish you all the the love that you deserve.
